Nfl Commissioner Roger Goodell and NFLPA head DeMaurice Smith each grabbed a side of the massive 300-page collective bargaining agreement between the players and league owners and exchanged a relieved handshake while posing for the cameras.

And just like that, 4½ months of acrimony, anger and posturing from both sides during the protracted NFL lockout was over.

Smith and Goodell signed the new CBA on a makeshift stage on the steps of the Pro Football Hall of Fame yesterday morning, a largely ceremonial gesture after the players agreed to ratify the 10-year agreement Thursday night.

“We’re all relieved because football is back,” Goodell said. “That’s what our fans want, and that’s what we all want and we’re thrilled that we got it done.”

Both Goodell and Smith were vague on the possibility of HGH-testing. Smith called it “something to be strived for,” with Goodell adding, “we’re going to get it done but we want to get it done right.”

DOLPHINS: Retired quarterback Brett Favre put to rest rumors he may be thinking of a return to the NFL. Favre, who had been linked to Miami on Thursday, told the Miami Herald he isn’t planning anymore comebacks.

EAGLES: Mike Patterson returned to the Eagles’ camp two days after his seizure at practice. There is no timetable for when the defensive tackle can return to the field, and questions linger if his career can even resume. Patterson is scheduled to see a neurologist in the next few days, agent J.R. Rickert said.

CHARGERS: Receiver Malcom Floyd signed a two-year contract with San Diego. Floyd averaged 19.4 yards per catch last season with the Chargers.
